DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0027] In combination with Figure 1 , the embodiment provides a novel heat dissipation water tank, which comprises a water tank body and a cover 2 connected to the water tank body through a connecting mechanism 1.
[0028] In combination with Figure 2 and Figure 3 , the connecting mechanism 1 comprises a mounting structure 11 and a fixed structure 12, the mounting structure 11 comprises a rectangular support plate 111 arranged horizontally and capable of being connected to the upper side of the water tank body, the outer edge of the support plate 111 extends downwardly with a first extension ring plate 112, and the lower side of the first extension ring plate 112 extends outwardly horizontally with a second extension ring plate 113.
[0029] In combination with Figure 4 and Figure 5 , the fixed structure 12 comprises a horizontal ring plate 121 fixedly attached to the upper side of the second extension ring plate 113, and a vertical ring plate 122 extending upwardly along the outer edge of the horizontal ring plate 121, and the vertical ring plate 122 is further provided with a first pressing tooth 123 inwardly bent to press and fix the cover 2 between the horizontal ring plate 121 and the vertical ring plate 122, and the outer side of the fixed structure 12 is further provided with a connecting reinforcing mechanism 3 to reinforce the connection between the cover 2 and the connecting mechanism 1 and maintain the integrity.
[0030] For the structure of the connecting reinforcing mechanism 3, in combination with Figure 6 In particular, the connection reinforcing mechanism 3 comprises a "L" shaped long strip structure composed of a first reinforcing plate 31 and a second reinforcing plate 32, the inner sides of the first reinforcing plate 31 and the second reinforcing plate 32 are respectively fixedly attached to the lower side of the second extension ring plate 113 and the outer side of the vertical ring plate 122, and the second reinforcing plate 32 is further provided with a second pressing tooth 33 that is inwardly curved and pressed on the first pressing tooth 123.
[0031] In combination Figure 5 , the "L" shaped cross section of the fixing structure 12 (horizontal ring plate 121 + vertical ring plate 122) provides the main support and positioning surface for the cover body 2, and the curved first pressing tooth 123 directly presses the edge of the cover body 2, forming an initial mechanical fixation.
[0032] In combination Figure 6 , the connection reinforcing mechanism 3 directly enhances the structural strength and fatigue resistance of the fixing structure 12 (especially the first pressing tooth 123 which is prone to stress concentration and deformation fracture), in particular, the first reinforcing plate 31 supports and reinforces the second extension ring plate 113 from below, sharing the load it bears and serving as a stable foundation for the entire reinforcing structure, the second reinforcing plate 32 is closely attached and wrapped around the outer side of the vertical ring plate 122 of the fixing structure 12, significantly enhancing the stiffness and bending resistance of this area, and the reinforcing fastening part directly covers and presses the outer side of the first pressing tooth 123 which is most prone to stress concentration and failure, providing strong external support and constraint for it, effectively inhibiting its plastic deformation (such as "straightening") caused by vibration and dispersing stress, greatly reducing the risk of fatigue fracture, to cope with the challenges brought by continuous vehicle vibration, thereby fundamentally preventing connection failure caused by plastic deformation and fatigue fracture, and significantly improving the reliability and durability of the connection.
[0033] Among them, the first pressing tooth 123 of the fixing structure 12 and the second pressing tooth 33 of the connection reinforcing mechanism 3 can be straight after initial installation and then bent, and the structure after bending is shown by the dashed line in Figure 5 and Figure 6 .
[0034] The side of the first reinforcing plate 31 away from the second reinforcing plate 32 is also bent upward to have a third reinforcing plate 34 pressed on the first extension ring plate 112, to reinforce the first extension ring plate 112 from the inner side of the first extension ring plate 112, so that the first reinforcing plate 31 and the third reinforcing plate 34 form a "clamping" effect on the first extension ring plate 112 of the mounting structure 11.
[0035] The first reinforcing plate 31, the second reinforcing plate 32 and the third reinforcing plate 34 are preferably integrally formed as a U-shaped long strip plate, thereby eliminating the connection points (such as welding or riveting) between the plate parts, the structure is more complete, the stiffness is higher, the stress distribution is more uniform, the fatigue resistance is better, and the manufacturing and assembly are simplified.
[0036] In combination Figure 2 The mounting structure 11 and the fixing structure 12 are two independent structures, and the mounting structure 11 and the fixing structure 12 are connected by welding, that is, the horizontal ring plate 121 is welded with the second extending ring plate 113. Before processing the blank, the horizontal ring plate 121 and the vertical ring plate 122 are respectively reserved with a gap 35 in the horizontal direction between the first extending ring plate 112 and the second extending ring plate 113 (as shown in Figure 7 The gap 35 can be set to 0.1mm-0.5mm to facilitate the solder filling and stress release during welding.
[0037] In this embodiment, the connecting reinforcing mechanism 3 is arranged on at least both sides of the length of the support plate 111 to provide reinforcement for the long side which is most easily affected by vibration, thereby optimizing the cost and weight while ensuring the effect.
[0038] In combination Figure 3 And Figure 4 The mounting structure 11 and the fixing structure 12 are respectively integrally formed to facilitate the processing of the complex shape of each, that is, the support plate 111, the first extending ring plate 112 and the second extending ring plate 113 are integrally formed, the horizontal ring plate 121, the vertical ring plate 122 and the first pressing tooth 123 are integrally formed, and the thickness of each plate in the connecting mechanism 1 and the connecting reinforcing mechanism 3 is 0.5mm-2.0mm.
[0039] The mounting structure 11 and the fixing structure 12 are two independent structures, and the mounting structure 11 and the fixing structure 12 are connected by welding, which facilitates processing and reduces the processing difficulty.
[0040] It should be noted that, in addition to the structure of the connecting mechanism 1 and the connecting part with the cover 2, the remaining part (such as the heat dissipation core, the water tank body interface, etc.) of the heat dissipation water tank can adopt the existing mature technology, for example, the related design in the automobile heat dissipation water tank shown in the patent publication CN201671703U, which will not be repeated here.
